Elevated pure gas-fired electrical energy technology was the second-most important consider pure fuel demand progress due to coal-to-gas switching and rising demand for air-con. Complete pure fuel demand within the Midwest grew by 35% between 2012 and 2022 as a result of pure fuel consumption within the electrical energy sector greater than doubled throughout this era, growing by 2.3 billion ft³/d. Within the Northeast, pure fuel demand grew by 36% between 2012 and 2022, additionally pushed by elevated consumption within the electrical energy sector.

Pure fuel consumption within the electrical energy sector elevated virtually yearly within the final 5 years as a result of summers have gotten hotter, which has elevated air-con demand. The summer time months final 12 months have been the third warmest on file within the US, leading to elevated demand for air-con and better pure gas-fired electrical energy technology within the US decrease 48 states.

The remainder of the South (excluding Louisiana and Texas) consumes essentially the most pure fuel of any area within the US and has the very best pure fuel consumption within the industrial and electrical energy sectors. The Northeast and West devour the least pure fuel within the US, at about 12.2 billion ft³/d every in 2022. When including in pipeline exports from the West to Mexico, the West accounts for a bigger share of whole US demand than the Northeast.
